29. Randolph is a 30 percent partner in the RD Partnership. On January 1, RD distributes $22,500 cash and inventory with a fair value of $56,000 (inside basis of $28,000) to Randolph in complete liquidation of his interest. RD has no liabilities at the date of the distribution. Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625. What is the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution

Answer: $3125 capital loss

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, we should note that RD Partnership distributes $22500 cash and inventory with inside basis of $28000.

Since Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625, the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution will be:

= ($22500 + $28000) - $53625

= $50500 - $53625

= -$3125

Therefore, there's a capital loss of $3125
